Uhh, great strategy there jumping out early.
I bet more teams will catch on to this and try to employ that scheme in the future
Just razzing ya a bit.
I see your point here, the problem is the Phins are also having trouble in the second halves of games.
So my focus if I’m Sparano is on getting this young team to learn how to maintain intensity for 60 minutes, for the entire coaching staff to learn when to adjust or when not to adjust, and for everyone to find the “drive” to finish games properly, with or without the lead!
GetterDone Phins!
Let’s Win at least 7 of the final 8 games.

MIKE BERARDINO is still living the dream he first hatched as a young boy growing up in South Florida in the ‘70s and ‘80s. He’s writing about sports for a living. Best of all, he’s doing it in a now-crowded South Florida sports landscape teeming with talent, passion and, yes, sometimes even controversy. As the newest sports columnist at the Sun Sentinel, where he’s worked since February 1998, most recently as a Dolphins beat writer, Mike will draw on his many experiences over the years covering virtually every major sport and event. You name it, he’s been on the scene: World Series, Summer and Winter Olympics, Super Bowls, NBA Finals, NCAA Final Fours, BCS Championships, Wimbledon, the Masters, NASCAR Sprint Cup and on and on. Talk about living the dream. And now, with this new role and a daily blog forum for his many ideas and opinions, it just keeps getting better.
